Not sure who Brad drives for honestly. I've seen Kaulig and Spire thrown around. This really sucks for RFK cause they were heading in a great direction.

PLUS, we need more Ford's running - not less, and this hurts that potentially as well.

Wonder what caused him to lose his ownership share?

Brad is selling out is my understanding. Reading between the lines sounds like Brad wanted to drive but sponsors would sponsor charter cars. Kroger is aligned with Ryan Preace. My guess is the money didn't work out and the majority owners won out. My guess btw.

From folks I've talked to, they believe he is going to Kaulig, and probably be in a Dodge. Remember, he is the last driver to win a championship in a Dodge as well (2012).

Was that the year that he punted Gordon into the wall, knocking Jeff out from his last "best chance" to win another championship? Next to last race of the season, right before the Final 4?

Might actually be true, who knows? I do know that it's very curious as to how competitive Chastain was initially and now for some reason he isn't... somehow don't think he's forgotten how to drive that quickly, but what do I know?

Trackhouse went to 3 cars too fast. Also, the metric for how qualifying is determined during rain outs will be changing after this season.

Per Chris Rice at Kauig this morning on his Sirius XM show he has had no conversations with Brad about joining dodge. Going to be interesting to see what all comes out of this. Could see JHN take the 3rd car for roush since he brings his own funding, that's just pure speculation though

Dodge is at a point that if they don't summit something here very soon, they will not be in CUP in 2027.

We were talking and like you, figured JHN would be the third car for Roush. His own funding, not a chartered car with full time, big name sponsors

This whole thing with Brad is wild and seems to be somewhat out of left field. The ripple effect of him leaving could end up being big. I really want to see Dodge come back into the series, and I really think Brad would entertain the idea of something like this comes about. One of these days I need to write a long form post about Ford and how some teams ( SHR ) come to mind and what goes on behind the scenes. Brad's audio touches on it some.

Road Atlanta is great for the Mazda series.

My dad raced there in the 70's. He finished 2nd to Lake Speed the last time he raced there, in the WKA karting series. I remember him telling me Lake Speed wasnt even in sight at the finish and won by something like 10 seconds...and that was after Lake spun out early
